Stuber - Application to ease ride sharing while reducing traffic

Ridesharing is desirable both economically and environmentally. This project involves developing a proof-of-concept prototype system facilitating ridesharing in the Stellenbosch community, which ties in with University and municipal goals of developing Stellenbosch into a smarter city.After further development, this system has the potential for use as a student ride-sharing application, as well as for improving routing of ad-hoc transport such as University shuttles and minibus taxis.
